Music Lessons in Anthony, NM

Instruments: Piano

When I started my piano lessons, I worked mostly with the Hanon exercises. Since this book has always been essential material to my learning, I will use this book to teach the beginning students and show them that exercises can also be fun and enjoyable to play, as I find them to be. As the student begins to dominate the basics of piano, I will introduce simple and easy pieces of Classical Music that will not only be fundamental to the beginner student's learning but also of the students liking; this way the learning will also be enjoyable and fun.

I'm a pianist, I've been playing playing the piano since I was 10 years old, currently 25 years old. A major highlight in my musical education was attending the high school for performing and visual arts in Houston Texas where I studied under Mr. Morales who shares my last name. I've performed with various chamber groups but I have spent my time mostly doing solo work. I consider myself primarily as a classical musician though I do enjoy various genres of music like jazz, and blues. Read More

My Experience goes back to my early and young age. I started to take lessons with a private instructor called Manolo Parra, a wonderful flamenco and classical guitarist. After 3 years of taking classes with him I started to teach guitar and work as his teaching aid. At the same time I participated and helped in church choirs as member and choir director making arrangements for original compositions and others. Today I'm still composing, arranging and directing a musical group. Read More

I began teaching students in college. While I was there I taught seven students all at once. I take pride in providing specific and tailored teaching to each of my students.

Along with this I am a member of TMEA (Texas Music Educators Association) and have attended conventions where I obtain more ways of effectively teaching. Read More

Music is accessible to everyone, but that does not necessarily mean everyone can teach it. Music relates the humanity of an individual, so a teacher needs to create connections between the music being studied and the student doing the studying. Learning music takes a high degree of patience and repetition, and it is the teacher's job to balance holding the student to a high standard and making music fun. Learning to sing or play an instrument takes a certain amount of vulnerability, so a teacher must create a strong relationship of trust with their students. Read More
